    Ohio Veterans BBQ Cook Off

    We had a great time last weekend at the Kettering OH BBQ Cook off. We got our very first call with a 10th place in Pork. It was very encouraging for our team Triple Lee "Q" especially considering it was only our 3rd competition. We will continue to work hard and improve. Here are some pics of...

    Electric Food Warmer Cart conversion

    I don't post much but I want to share this build and I welcome any advice. This community has always pointed me in the right direction. I came across this stainless steel insulated box. In a previous life it was a food warmer cart with a removable electronic warmer that went as high as 220...

    Too cold in Ohio..

    I just can't seem to get my wood smoker above 100 degress with out burning an excessive amount of coal. My ecb won't get above 180, but it is making smoke. I've got two spares cut St. Louis style on now. If I don't see the "pull" I'm looking for in three hours at least I should have enough smoke...

    Awesome first try!!!!!

    On my very first try........Beer Butt Chicken........fresh off the smoker. Jeff's rub inside and out, and mixed in with the Miller lite. Topped the neck with a sweet onion cut in half. Certainly the best chicken I've ever had. I can't imagine how good it will be after some more practice. I did...

    St. Louis Style in Ohio!!!

    Thank you all for teaching me the basics of smokin spares...With your help on the prep work I was able to cut them St. Louis style. My family and friends were very impressed and there wasn't a single piece of meat left. I had to adapt a little due to the weather and I think they could have been...

    I can't see!!!!

    Judging from the posts and replys I'm reading it seems like I'm missing out on some awesome Q-VIEW. As a matter of fact I rarely see any of the pics everyone else refers to. I've double and triple checked my user cp to "allow" pics and such. But I know I'm missing out on some mouth watering...
